I've got over 730 shows of GD on CDR...most of it is Soundboard, some audience of course, looking for some CDR trades, your list gets mine, no list is too small...I've got a number of shows I transfered from my DAT>CDR, some ended up on e-tree as unknown sources years ago...

ERASE the CD-RWs when you're done and they're ready for the next project. There might be easier and cheaper ways to do this; but I already owned that stand-alone hardware...

Figure on investing about 4-5 hours per show.
Not saying its not worth it, but if you want single tracks you have to go an split them up manually and export, etc... and it does become a pain in the arse.
Spent many late, late nights going cross-eyed doing this with Soundforge.

First sets were always nice and easy due to tuning breaks between the songs, but then the 2nd sets were a bit tedious to breakout into individual tracks... especially the earlier years when the transitions would be less defined.
I am constantly impressed by the work of these folks out there "remixing"/upgrading shows. Must take a mighty amount of skill and a significant amount of patience. Quite impressive.

Once you have recorded the cassette, you can break the wav into seperate tracks before burning to a CD.

I imagine there's some primal Dead ('66-'70) out there that hasn't emerged or been converted yet.
I saw a schoolmate recording GD shows with a Panasonic mono deck with built-in condensor mike, on less crowded nights (Thursday, Sunday) at the Fillmore West (Carousel Ballroom) in 1970.
Sounds low-fi, but he actually got pretty good results.
And some of those shows aren't in circulation anywhere, or are seriously incomplete.
Don't know what became of the dude, maybe I could get his name from a 1969 or 1970 Lowell HS yearbook and go from there.
The mind reels...
think of the unknown archives that really would be worth the trouble to switch and slice...

I would love to trade, since I don't bit-torrent and the other sources seem to be a thing of the past.
Good old trades like the old days can't be all bad.
I'm backing up the external hard drive this weekend and will have a list ready when that is complete. Maybe 250 shows so far... when the extra hard drive copy is done I'll be sharing it with someone who will add about 100 more shows. You'll get mail from me soon, and the Cornell, if you don't have it by now.

730 X 3 = 2190...I'd say I've got around 2000 discs give or take 75...trust it's a buttload..all of it is HQ...I had some low gen cassette but the thrill was finding those sources on DAT back in the 90's...
I used a stand alone system and still do (if I actually had it in my possession...went through a bad divorce and I haven't gotten back into my house to get anything...the wife did by request of her mother to send back my grateful dead CDR collection , I had about 100 shows out through the house so they didn't come back with the archive...I've got about 1500 non GD shows at the house too, plus at least 1000 DATs too, bummer! it might have been destroyed, sold, or given away...I had a bunch of rare stuff that I personally recorded all non GD via DAT!)
I had DAT>CDR transfers down...I was doing it in spring of 97 way before alot of folks did it which is why alot of the stuff indirectly made it's way here...
I used a Roland VS-880EX through a Marantz 650 disc presser that was used only for sample rate conversion since it failed and didn't burn (all at real time) that made it's way via SCCI "scuzzie" into a QPS ext. burner at 2x then I used NERO to burn copies...later I went to 4X on the burn...all through s/pdif, no processing what so ever via the DATs...they probably are not the best sources anymore since miller does a great job remastering...but I did have some great stuff when the DATs were clean...
it's not worth transfering your GD cassettes unless you've got really good masters or 1st gen's...non GD is worth it becuase it so rare and not archived like this stuff is here
anybody want to trade, seriously I didn't get my cornell 77 SBD from the house...can you believe I've got over 2000 GD CDR's and not Cornell 77, can somebody please throw me a list....and some quick snail mail trades?
grovel, grovel

Some may recall that earlier this year I fried an external hard-drive that, for me, was exclusively Grateful Dead. The friend that introduced me to the Dead said "start down loading again... Enjoy downloading again." Seven months later... I have passed beyond the collection of shows I had before, now on new external Hard-Drive.
So... The questions are:
How many shows does everyone have?
How many shows are too many?
Are they hard-drive bound (internal or external), or CD-R bound? If CDRs... How many?
